2 Samuel 17:1-8

Moreover Ahithophel
<0302>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Absalom
<053>_,
Let me now choose out
<0977> (8799)
twelve
<08147> <06240>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_,
and I will arise
<06965> (8799)
and pursue
<07291> (8799)
after
<0310>
David
<01732>
this night
<03915>_:
And I will come
<0935> (8799)
upon him while he [is] weary
<03023>
and weak
<07504>
handed
<03027>_,
and will make him afraid
<02729> (8689)_:
and all the people
<05971>
that [are] with him shall flee
<05127> (8804)_;
and I will smite
<05221> (8689)
the king
<04428>
only:
And I will bring back
<07725> (8686)
all the people
<05971>
unto thee: the man
<0376>
whom thou seekest
<01245> (8764)
[is] as if all returned
<07725> (8800)_:
[so] all the people
<05971>
shall be in peace
<07965>_.
And the saying
<01697>
pleased
<03474> (8799)
Absalom
<053>
well
<05869>_,
and all the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{pleased...: Heb. was right in the eyes of, etc}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Absalom
<053>_,
Call
<07121> (8798)
now Hushai
<02365>
the Archite
<0757>
also, and let us hear
<08085> (8799)
likewise what he saith
<06310>_.
{what...: Heb. what is in his mouth}
And when Hushai
<02365>
was come
<0935> (8799)
to Absalom
<053>_,
Absalom
<053>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ahithophel
<0302>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
after this manner
<01697>_:
shall we do
<06213> (8799)
[after] his saying
<01697>_?
if not; speak
<01696> (8761)
thou. {his saying: Heb. his word}
And Hushai
<02365>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Absalom
<053>_,
The counsel
<06098>
that Ahithophel
<0302>
hath given
<03289> (8804)
[is] not good
<02896>
at this time
<06471>_.
{given: Heb. counselled}
For, said
<0559> (8799)
Hushai
<02365>_,
thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
thy father
<01>
and his men
<0582>_,
that they [be] mighty men
<01368>_,
and they [be] chafed
<04751>
in their minds
<05315>_,
as a bear
<01677>
robbed
<07909>
of her whelps in the field
<07704>_:
and thy father
<01>
[is] a man
<0376>
of war
<04421>_,
and will not lodge
<03885> (8799)
with the people
<05971>_.
{chafed...: Heb. bitter of soul}
